Any disadvantage of running a Bypass valve with a turbo instead of a Blow Off Valve? I was thinking of using a Vortech Race Bypass valve in a single front mount system. A bypass valve will stay open and recirculate the boost till the vacumn drops below 3-4". On a Supercharged application, it helps reduce the load on the engine while cruising. I was wondering since a Blow Off Valve stays closed till it has to "burp" the system when you slam the throttle body closed, does it make the system more efficient/responsive during normal driving? Pretty much a the aftermarket kits use a BOV but all the OEM systems use 1/2 Bypass valves. I also like that fact that the bypass valve gets rid of the BOV fart that you hear so often (mostly on rice Rockets).

Thanks, Rick
